Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

My wife and I moved to Bonita Springs last year and looking for good doctors, dentists etc., We heard about Dr. Gilbert and Pelican Landing Dental. I do not like Dentists but can't thank Dr. Gilbert and his staff for a wonderful experience. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

He is fantastic. His office was highly accommodating when I called and asked for an appointment the same day due to a dental emergency. They were able to get me in (and I was not left in the reception area waiting to be "squeezed in". It is an efficient and friendly dental office, beautiful and relaxing and immaculately clean. Dr. Rich was fabulous, took care of my issue quickly and I was in and out in an hour. I highly recommend. Dr. Rich is personable and very knowledgable. Highly recommend.

Probably the best dental experience I have had. I was worked in as an emergency, and he took time to do a wonderful job knowing he would never see me again.

Dr. Rich Gilbert recently replaced three crowns for me. Both Dr. Rich and his assistant, Alexia, were great about explaining everything they were doing and very considerate of my comfort level. The entire staff is very courteous and efficient. I'm a new resident and very happy I found the Pelican Landing Dental practice.

My experience with Dr. Rich Gilbert has been excellent. The staff at pelican Landing dental is also excellent. I have been to this office on several occasions. Every time I entered, I was greeted with a friendly hello. After the my first visit, I was also greeted with the friendly hello, with my name. During my appointments, I was always treated professionally and cordially. I was also impressed with the up to date technology at this facility.

Dr. Rich and staff are excellent. From the moment you walk-in, the care you receive from all is great. Dr. Rich was able to determine the issue for my sensitivity and "fixed" it. Very appreciative of them getting me in so quickly. Great office, location and staff!

I saw the Dr for a specific pain in a tooth with a root canal. He assessed the pain with the help of my former records. Very professional attitude and concerned about my issue. Very patient and kind. The next morning I had no pain in the tooth. First time in two years. I do not think he is not about the money but he is about the care of a patient. A professional attitude. I would recommend him.

This was my first experience with Dr. Rich and it could not have gone better. I had lost a crown and needed to have the tooth extracted. Dr. Rich and Kayla worked very patiently to get that difficult tooth out and were careful to minimize the trauma to my mouth. Everyone in that office is friendly and professional!

If you can judge a dentist by his staff, this place is like Disneyland. Happy dentist, happy employees. They're practically zealous in their enthusiasm for working for these three practioners. Once you get past that, Dr. Rich is gentle, professional, patient and obviously a superb dentist. I suspect he's a perfectionist.

First, the entire staff at Pelican Landing Dental is amazing. They are kind, generous, friendly... I just can't say enough. I went to Dr. Rich in a somewhat urgent situation (no pain just worry about my issue). They took me within hours. Since that day I have been completely satisfied with everything they have done. I have had a few crowns over the years and by far the best one ever is the one Dr. Rich did for me. I am now going to have all the others replaced by him. He is amazing...
